Overview

• A photographer stepped onto the court as Benjamin Bonzi prepared a second serve on match point, triggering a roughly six-minute delay on Louis Armstrong Stadium.
• Chair umpire Greg Allensworth cited outside interference and restored Bonzi’s first serve, a ruling that drew boos and set off Daniil Medvedev’s confrontation.
• Medvedev taunted the umpire, urged the crowd on, and later smashed his racket after losing, telling reporters he expects to be fined.
• Bonzi beat Medvedev in five sets, 6-3, 7-5, 6-7 (5), 0-6, 6-4, after play resumed from the interruption.
• The USTA escorted freelance photographer Selcuk Acar from the venue and revoked his credential, while Acar claims he was told the match was stopped and calls the punishment a “lynching.”
